Commercial Production in Wellington
A good commercial earns attention before it asks for anything. Billie writes and shoots ads that tell a short story first, then lands the brand and the offer clearly, in formats sized for TV, YouTube, Meta and TikTok.
Wellington punches well above its size for creative work. The film industry is centred in Miramar, the live music and arts scene runs through Cuba Street and the waterfront, and the compact city means the harbour, the south coast and the CBD are all minutes apart. Hemara Group has a base in Wellington, and Billie works with Wellington artists, venues and businesses directly.
What’s included
- Creative concept and script
- Storyboards and shot lists
- Full production crew
- Post-production and supers
- 6, 15 and 30 second versions
Billie brings the film-first approach of its own productions, Two Wheels and After Service, to brand work.
How it works
- Brief: A call to understand the goal, the audience, the timeline and the budget.
- Treatment: A written and visual plan, so everyone agrees on the idea before anything is shot.
- Production: Locations, crew, cast and schedule locked in, then the shoot itself.
- Post: Edit, colour, sound and graphics, with review rounds built in.
- Delivery: Masters and cut-downs for every platform the piece will live on.
